I asked Sally for a short tutorial, to maybe help me find my own direction within this brief. I've mainly struggled to narrow down a specific discipline to target my brief in (i.e. illustration, typography, photography). As I enjoy most aspects within graphic design, I've been struggling. I eventually chose the path of advertising and illustration by looking at my stronger work and obviously the work I most enjoyed designing.
The final outcome of the tutorial was that I wanted to concentrate on types of film posters (very broad, but still at the initial stages) and this is the beginning of my statement of intent:
"Create a set of *something* film posters to promote *something* film festival/genre/period."
I then created a brief 3 minute presentation for 1:30. During the critique I was given feedback about possible directions in which I could take my brief. That maybe I should choose a specific film (my favorite?), look around the local area for old cinemas re-screening classic films.
Both are areas I had already discussed in the morning during the tutorial.
Well plenty of work to be getting on with:
- Small local cinemas (contact them?)
- Library- film section, have a browse.
- Concentrating on a genre.
- A Certain direction, so to finish my statement of intent.
